  • Introduction

    Pioneer farmers and homesteaders for ten generations, with little time to themselves, neither Henry nor his forefathers were genealogists. They didn't read books or do research, and out on the frontier there were no libraries, and no internet of course. Yet our name and origins have remained known, in this line, even if some people nowadays are not so certain. According to Grandfather Henry, who learned this from his fathers before him, the very first "Mo'fords" came to England around a "thousand years" ago from a place somewhere "between France, Holland, and Germany" [modern Belgium perhaps]. In the beginning there was "NO L" in our surname, spoken and written "with an O" which changed to U eventually as we moved across England and into America. "All" Mulfords today are related, descending from "Edward and Henry" (whose names especially have been hereditary in the family generations since, often as middle names) and, in America, from "three brothers" who came here with "the Pilgrims" [Puritans] because of religious persecution. Two of the brothers were "William and John" in "New York," but Henry did not recall the third brother's name. The Mulfords in this line, he said, married into a family of "high class Dutchmen" and regard themselves as Dutch even now.
